This broadcast details the growing fascist influence within the “black metal” music genre.

A hard-core, iconoclastic, pagan-influenced form of rock music, black metals employs the lexicon and iconography of fascism and Nazism as a vehicle for shocking the establishment. Within the black metal milieu is a growing fascist, Nazi and satanic element that is consciously attempting to manipulate the genre in order to win alienated youth over to the fascist cause.

Beginning with discussion of a recent book about the subject, the program details the explicit fascist, Nazi and satanic connections of some of the leading figures involved with the black metal scene. The program details the occult and fascist connections of figures like Boyd Rice. Michael Moynihan and others. (As repeatedly noted in the program, the black metal scene is not fascist. Elements within it are.) It should be noted that fascism and Nazism have (in the past) utilized marginal and alienated elements of society as street soldiers.

As was the case with the Strasserite wing of the NSDAP (the German Nazi party under Hitler), these elements are frequently liquidated after they have served their purpose. It should be noted that William Pierce (the head of the National Alliance, the most important American Nazi organization) has purchased Resistance Records, a Nazi-skinhead music company.
